2023 Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid

The Corolla Cross Hybrid has more power and much better fuel economy than the conventional model, making it the clear choice between the two. The electric drive gives a smooth shove off the line and the added power helped it shave about 1.5 seconds off the regular model’s 0 to 60 mph time. There’s certainly no arguing with its impressive 41 mpg overall with standard all-wheel drive, a 13-mpg gain. The hybrid is slightly quieter due to its ability to drive on electric power at low speeds, but it's still loud overall, and the cabin has basic furnishings. The Hybrid's ride is a bit more composed and handling is slightly more responsive. The infotainment system has wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. AEB with pedestrian, bicyclist, and motorcycle detection, along with AEB highway, come standard. BSW and RCTW are standard on all trims except for the base Hybrid S. A mild refresh in 2026 brought new styling and larger screen options on the interior.

Brand context

About Toyota

<p>Toyota has a reputation for building efficient and exceptionally reliable vehicles. This holds true in most cases, with a few exceptions. Most of their models do well in our testing, thanks to their impressive fuel economy, comfortable rides, quiet cabins, good controls, and generous standard safety equipment. All of this makes Toyotas among the best options for used vehicles. The brand was a hybrid pioneer, starting with the original Prius. Toyota has evolved and expanded that technology, and most vehicles in its lineup are available as a hybrid. Toyota sells a number of plug-in hybrids and an increasing number of EVs, including the bZ and C-HR. The company also knows how to add a dosage of excitement into its lineup: The GR86, GR Corolla, and Supra are legit, fun-to-drive sports cars.</p>
